Most water taps are closed during the period 1/11 - 15/4. This is because of the risk of pipes freezing. However, nature's water reserves are well stocked during that period.

Description

Stage 11 passes through the Garphyttan National Park, which is one of the oldest national parks in Sweden. It will also take you through one of the most beautiful areas in the region and which is well worth seeing as it offers a stunning array of natural experiences. You can become slowly acquainted with these old agricultural areas with their abundance of meadow flowers and the huge number of flora and fauna that thrive here. In the ancient forests you can see the remains of the former Klunkhytte fortification, which dates back to the Iron Age. From here you have a view of Lake Leken and the road that has been a vital transport link between the provinces of Närke and Värmland since the Viking Age. Our resting place, with a wind shelter, fireplace and toilet, is located at Lilla Tväggelåten.
